In a Snap: Gorilla Glass May Be Coming to an Installation Near You

Last year at the American Institute of Architects (AIA) convention, elevator panel company SnapCab featured its then-new concept of decorative wall panels clad with Corning’s Gorilla Glass. Earlier this year at the 2016 AIA Show, that concept was put into practice at the company’s booth. In 2015, virtually SnapCab’s entire setup was regarding elevator interior systems, which has made up the bulk of its business over the last two decades. “But people were interested in the wall panels outside of the elevator, so we continued to pursue it,” says vice president of sales and marketing Caleb Morrison. “This year, I’d say 80 percent of our booth consisted of wall panels, to 20 percent elevator interior.”
